Wolves and hybrids
But according to Coldiretti Toscana the attacks would be at least twice as many as those reported and compensated by the Tuscany Region: "companies denounce the killing of a head but not attacks without predation, sometimes repeated, which often have even more serious consequences for companies such as the reduction of milk production and abortions due to shockk - explains Fabrizio Filippi, President of Coldiretti Toscana - Next week we will see the Tuscany Region. A change is needed and solutions are needed ”.
In 2019 alone, 520 predations across the region were reported by 210 companies. In the province of Pisa alone there were seventeen. The other often underestimated aspect is the impact that repeated attacks by wolves and wildlife have on the phenomenon of the depopulation of agricultural assets in the mountains and in disadvantaged areas. “Predators discourage mountain pastures and keep businesses away from the most difficult mountain areas. - explains Filippi - The uncontrolled presence of wolves is contributing to the closure of the stables and the impoverishment of Tuscan livestock with serious repercussions on the occupation and maintenance of the territory ".
